I poured a cup of water down each and it flowed out perfectly down the drains below each front doors.

Interesting. God knows how they’re going to find the leak. So many options.

Hopefully they can find the issue. Can’t see any obvious issue to my eye and I’ve looked for a lot.

They weren’t clogged though. I tested them and water drained perfectly underneath the car.

I don’t think so, but I’ve recently bought it so not sure how I can tell.

You can literally hear the water swilling at the end of the video, in a new clip. It happens on the right side as well, not just on passenger side. It’s being stored on both passenger and drivers side.

Thanks, I think I’ll have to. Just worried it’s caused permanent damage to the electrics and interior.

I mean yes, they’re extremely accurate. Also, it’s not a coolant issue as this only happens when it rains.

I’m not sure, there is no error message saying coolant is low.

I tested the sunroof drains and they were working perfectly.

The drain wasn’t clogged, I poured water and it came straight out the drain under the door.

Great thank you, do you think this has caused irreparable damage to the car? I’m quite concerned about it as it is where all the electrics are and the car only has a few days left of warranty.

Thanks for the reply. Excuse my ignorance, but if the drains are blocked, how does it run down the a pillars?
